The leaders discussed a wide range of issues concerning bilateral cooperation, paying special attention to strengthening political dialogue, enhancing trade and economic relations, and expanding cooperation in tourism, education, agriculture, and energy.
At the conclusion of the talks, both sides reaffirmed their mutual interest in intensifying contacts at the governmental, business, and cultural levels. The parties announced their intention to establish a Kyrgyz-Egyptian intergovernmental commission on trade, economic, and scientific-technical cooperation, as well as to sign several agreements — including those on mutual recognition of academic degrees, cooperation in tourism, and exchange of experience in the agricultural sector.
